UNISSON(S) movement is committed to uniting and promoting all city stakeholders involved in an active and radical change for low-carbon architecture and living things. While the Earth has experienced many climate changes, the one it is currently experiencing is the result of human activity. It is thus possible to act actively by changing collective and individual habits. It is then necessary to invent an architecture of the ecological shift in order to respond to these challenges.
For Dominique Boré, Honorary President of the Maison de l’Architecture Île-de-France and General Commissioner of UNISSON(S) movement, this new architecture must “be humble while being ambitious”. It is an architecture that shows boldness in the use of materials, reinvents uses and habits, that takes into account comfort of the livings. It is an architecture taking the new standards and regulations as a new basis for creation and creativity allowing to design new desirable imaginaries that our society needs in order to accelerate the shift.

Thibaut Manent and Loïc Guichaoua created Papa Outang. The company produces a chocolate spread which is committed to preserve the rainforest and its hosts: the orangutans. Every day, 25 orangutans die because of deforestation. To fight against this scourge, Papa Outang’s team has developed a palm-oil-free spread formula in an infinitely refillable container. The company finances Kalaweit, an association that buys up plots of forest with the help of locals, to create nature reserves and preserve ecosystems.
Mouvement Impact France reasserts its commitment to the economic and social transition and hopes that the Finance Bill 2023 (PLF 2023) will be the cornerstone of the government’s ecological planning.
Following PLF 2023 introduction by government, the movement recognizes the positive impact of a number of new legislations such as the end of export guarantees in the fossil fuel sector but regrets a very small consideration of climate issues.
Mouvement Impact France said: “With a view to a better management of public funds and prevention of social and environmental risks inherent to the current economic situation, it is necessary that the amounts injected by the State to support French companies also lead them to align their strategy towards less carbon and fairer business models”.
